CAS No 9004-32-4 refers to Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose, commonly known as CMC or carboxymethylcellulose sodium. This versatile cellulose derivative is a white to off-white, odorless, and tasteless powder widely used as a thickener, stabilizer, binder, and rheology modifier across industries. In the context of food additives, feed additives, and pharmaceutical intermediates, CAS No 9004-32-4 plays a pivotal role in enhancing product performance while ensuring compliance with stringent USA regulations like FDA 21 CFR and USP standards.

Structurally, Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose is produced by reacting cellulose – derived from high-quality cotton linters or wood pulp – with sodium hydroxide and monochloroacetic acid. The degree of substitution (DS) typically ranges from 0.6 to 1.2, determining its solubility and viscosity properties. For instance, high-viscosity grades (e.g., 1500-3000 cps) are ideal for oil drilling fluids, while low-viscosity types suit pharmaceutical tablets. At Shijiazhuang Standard IMP&EXP, our CAS No 9004-32-4 is manufactured using advanced fermentation and purification processes, mirroring our expertise in monosodium glutamate production, ensuring purity levels above 99.5%.

In the USA market, demand for buy CAS No 9004-32-4 wholesale has surged by 15% annually (per Grand View Research, 2025 forecast), driven by clean-label food trends and sustainable manufacturing. You, as an operations manager, need suppliers who address sodium carboxymethyl cellulose CAS 9004-32-4 price volatility amid China's supply chain disruptions. Our powerful factory in Hebei, China, leverages corn starch fermentation tech – the same used for our chicken bouillon – to produce consistent batches, exporting to USA, Brazil, and Australia with zero delays.

Key LSI terms like food grade CMC, pharma grade CAS 9004-32-4, viscosity modifier CMC, CMC E466 (EU codex), cellulose gum supplier, OEM CMC powder, high purity carboxymethyl cellulose, industrial CMC grades, CMC for ice cream stabilizer, tablet binder CAS 9004-32-4, detergent thickener CMC, oilfield CMC, and gluten-free thickener highlight its multifunctionality. Unlike competitors focused on price alone, we prioritize service and quality, offering customized DS values, particle sizes (50-200 mesh), and packaging (25kg bags, 1MT jumbos).

Historical context: Discovered in 1918, CMC gained FDA approval in 1944 for food use. Today, in 2026, with BERT-optimized searches favoring EEAT content, buyers seek suppliers like us with 20+ years experience in additives. Our two fermentation departments ensure scalable production: 5000MT/year capacity, reducing your high shipping costs via consolidated FCL shipments to West Coast ports (LA/Long Beach).

Technical deep-dive: Soluble in water (up to 20% concentration), forming clear viscous solutions. pH stability (6.0-8.5), thermal resistance up to 120°C, and salt tolerance make it superior to xanthan gum. In food, it prevents syneresis in yogurt; in pharma, it controls drug release. Get your technical data sheet now – link in CTA below.

Market insights: USA imports 25,000 MT annually (USITC data, 2025), with average pricing at $3.5-5/kg for food grade. We beat competitors by 25-30% through direct factory pricing, no middlemen. Pain points like inconsistent quality (e.g., heavy metals >10ppm in cheap Chinese sources) are eliminated via our ISO-tested batches.
